The Cheshire Cat Antiques - Alpine (TX)

5 /5 Robin Swindle: Best antique store in the West. Russ who owns the place, wrote his dissertation in Texas spurs. His knowledge is deep and he shares it generously. He is also generous with his dragons horde of rocks, gems and skulls. He went out back to find me the perfect rams skull in the condition and price range that I was looking for. Then he offered my kids free geodes on our way out. After spending the week exploring far West Texas, including Big Bend National park, Russ and Cheshire Cat Antiques is what my kids talked about the most. And yes there are plenty of of cats to pet on the front porch.

5 /5 Trisha Love: The owner was so nice and accommodating. When I told him I was buying amethyst crystals to take home for my grand children, he gave me two geodes for them to crack! They were so excited to open their "magic rocks "

5 /5 Ashley Wheat: We had a great time shopping here today! They have great antiques, but we stayed around for the rock collection! It was incredible and the prices were great! The owner went above and beyond talking to us about all the rocks and just gave great service! Will definitely come back any Rome we are in the area!

5 /5 Michael Phillip Thomas: True Purveyors of Curiosities relevant to Texas!!!! These folks are amazing. Do Not Miss. We hit it every time we come home. Not an antique store like it statewide.

5 /5 Barotrauma Bruce: Holy smokes! This isn’t a shop it’s a museum. Dropped by for a minute, spent over an hour. The manager, Russ, may have referred to the family as “4th generation junk collectors”. Don’t believe it! Wonderful stuff I call it. Found just what we were looking for. Just had to visit the right place.
